Virtual Reality Therapy

Virtual reality therapy (VRT) is an innovative and emerging paradigm that provides effective modality of therapy by allowing clients to be exposed to similar stimuli as their real-world experiences using a computer-generated virtual reality. Extensive empirical research in VRT attests to the effective uses of this technology in treating many psychological disorders. In this chapter, researchers provide a thorough description of VRT and discuss the paradigm, emergence, trends, technologies, and research in this field. Furthermore, researchers provide concise direction and innovative ideas for the next generation of VRT applications.
